Caring
for the Earth
It
is no longer an option to live blithely on this planet with no care
as to what you are doing to it. Pollution in it's many forms has
grown to critical proportions and if we don't stop the way we've
been treating this planet, we will no longer have the honor of living
on it.
Here
are some simple things that you can do in your own personal environment
to help clean up the earth:
- Don't
use pesticides, herbicides (Round-up, etc.), or chemical fertilizers
in your yard and gardens. Mulch your garden waste and use that
to fertilize. The companies that manufacture chemicals are some
of the biggest polluters in the world. Don't support them by buying
their products.
- Recycle
paper, cardboard, glass, plastic, and whatever else your local
recyclers will accept.
- Buy
recycled products and support the whole re-cycle.
- Buy
organic foods. They are grown without pesticides, herbicides,
or chemical fertilizers. By purchasing organic food you won't
be supporting one of our most dangerous industries - the chemical
companies.
- Don't
burn trash, brush, campfires, woodstoves,or anything else that
isn't absolutely necessary. Soot from burning has caused more
damage to our atmosphere than carbon monoxide from cars and trucks.
- Combine
trips to take care of errands and shopping to limit driving and
save gas.
- Limit
your family size so that you don't add to the over-population
problem by practising birth control. We no longer have the luxury
of having large families. Every time another child is born it
adds to the already overburdened resources of this planet. We
are living longer now which means that we are not leaving to make
space for the newborn on this planet.
